Hi All

Wanted to introduce my self
I live in Hawaii on Oahu and own a pepper white 2018 F56 Cooper S automatic. I got the automatic because it was a car that had been on the lot for a while and got a great deal on it, its my daily driver and my pre-covid commute involves a couple of miles over a pretty steep road that often has very slow stop and go traffic. I also own a 1990 911 cabriolet with a manual. Prior to owning the Mini I had a string of BMWs and moved out of the M4 competition into the Mini lease. The M4 was a great car but too big and so capable that not much fun to drive unless driving in the if they catch you, you go to jail manner. The Mini is lots of fun and I love driving it.

I just bought out the last few month of my lease early, so now I own the vehicle as opposed to leasing it.

I had the dealer install the JCW power kit with the Bluetooth exhaust and the JCW pro sport suspension as part of the original lease transaction. About 6 months later I stacked the Dinan Elite piggy back on top of the JWC tune. Dinan advised that I should use the Elite for the JCW as opposed to the one for the S. I am very happy with the mods so far.

Happy to be a member of this forum.
